I don’t think about the past or regret things much these days. But sometimes I wish that I had known some of things I have learned over the last few years a bit earlier. That perhaps there had been a self-improvement class in school. And in some ways there probably was. Because some of these 16 things in this article a teacher probably spoke about in class.

Some of it would probably not have stuck in my mind anyway. But I still think that taking a few hours from all those German language classes and use them for some personal development classes would have been a good idea. So here are 16 things I wish they had taught me in school (or I just would like to have known about earlier). 1. This is one of the best ways to make better use of your time. So a lot of what you do is probably not as useful or even necessary to do as you may think. You can just drop – or vastly decrease the time you spend on – a whole bunch of things.

A Long Story. . . a Renewing Cycle Ah… a bracelet… Like a ring, you always see it.

It is a very personal piece. Like a ring, it encircles you with its energy… It tells the story of the seasons which exist in everything. It reminds you of each step needed in the process of change, from clearing cluttered space within ourselves to the creating our dreams; A bracelet represents the eternal cycle of our lives, going ever deeper in the reclaiming of the totality of who we are, layer after layer after layer… The symbolism is very strong. Being Part of the Story, Living each Season The idea is to participate in the story….A bracelet is like a brand new house.

Arabesque (Islamic art)
Part of a 15th-century ceramic panel from Samarkand with white calligraphy on a blue arabesque background.

Islamic relief panel from Medina Azahara, Córdoba, Spain, c. 940. The central panel pattern springs from a central base and terminates within the space; most later ones do neither. Claims are often made regarding the theological significance of the arabesque, and its origin in a specifically Islamic view of the world; however these are without support from written historical sources as, like most medieval cultures, the Islamic world has not left us documentation of their intentions in using the decorative motifs they did. Many arabesque patterns disappear at (or "under" as it often appears to a viewer) a framing edge without ending, and thus can be regarded as infinitely extendable outside the space they actually occupy; this was certainly a distinctive feature of the Islamic form, though not without precedent.
